Finally a beautiful sunny weekend in Pittsburgh! We took full advantage.
Saturday seemed the perfect day for the zoo. Apparently lots of others had the same idea – it was crowded!
Leo, looking at the lions. I love how the green of his jacket brings out the green in his eyes.
We spent most of our time at the Water’s Edge exhibit, looking at the polar bears and sand tiger sharks. Jonas was pretty scared of the polar bears, but oddly enough the sharks’ rows and rows of razor sharp teeth didn’t bother him.
I love the light in that last one! I’m very excited for May 15 when I’ll be shooting Emily and Tim’s wedding there.
An unusual occurrence: me in front of the camera!
My hair isn’t really rainbow-colored. Just brown. Neat effect though with the sunlight streaming through the shark tank above.
By the end of our time at the zoo, both boys were tired and arguing over who would get to ride in the stroller. So they doubled up.
Since Sunday was just as beautiful, we headed over to Frick Park. The playground still had plenty of snow on it, but that didn’t stop us.
Even Marley the Dog came along! Poor girl is really showing her age. We only walked on the park trails a little bit, since the boys were eager to get to the playground, but she was worn out.

Yes, she’s smiling because she’s excited to be a flower girl. But at this moment she was extra excited that she was about to wear makeup!

I’m going to go out on a limb and risk the wrath of a majority of my fellow Pittsburgh residents. Yes, I dare say it: I think this has been the best winter ever.
Over the past few weeks I’ve heard more grumbling than I can count about all the snow that’s fallen. It is true that we have only had a few days without any snow. There have been plenty of days when we’ve gotten a few inches of snow during the day and then another inch or two overnight.
But I admit it: I like it! The coziness of it, the beauty, the way it completely transforms the look of our surroundings, and seeing 2-year-old Jonas point and marvel at the snow, all warm my heart.
And thankfully my whole family shares the feeling. For your viewing pleasure, a 2-minute montage of some of our fun this winter. All video (and photo below) captured by my Canon G9.

This makes me laugh. 
And the sweetness of this one! It’s more than I can bear.
